Nintendo Labo: The DIY cardboard accessory for Switch

Dubbed Labo, it is a series of DIY accessories for the hit Nintendo Switch console which are made of cardboard. This cardboard add-on might on the face of it seem a flimsy gimmick, but there are few fools at Nintendo. "Wild", "Awesome", "Insane and I love it" - just a handful of reactions plucked from the gaming press on Wednesday as news of Nintendo's cardboard experiment became known. By tapping into the maker movement, Nintendo could potentially open up a whole new world of experiences on its smash hit Switch console, a device that many were weary of when it was first released. The latest official figures from December show that the Switch sold a total of 10 million units worldwide in its first nine months.
